That is why old threads within the thread index are left open. If an old thread doesn't appear in the thread index and it is replied too then this would be thread necromancy. However if the reply is giving new information then it is fine.

If the new member doesn't know what the thread index is or where it is then members should direct them to it or if the moderator is around, direct them to the thread index and close the thread

There are so many like that though, and the moderators arnt around that often enough for the redirecting to work efficiently. I mean, they could do that if they wanted to, but they would have to do it so so many, because most of the new threads already are in the index.
